New Delhi: The Bhartiya Janata Party on Monday demanded an apology from Congress in Parliament over the controversial remarks made by Ghulam Nabi Azad comparing Hindutva outfit RSS with terror organisation ISIS.
According to party sources, members will raise the issue and seek Azad's apology as comparison of RSS with a violent organisation like ISIS was "unacceptable" to them.
Azad had earlier kicked a row by seeking to draw a parallel between RSS and ISIS. "So, we oppose organisations like ISIS, the way we oppose RSS. If those among us in Islam too do wrong things, they are no way less than RSS," he had said at an event organised by Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind.
